I was planning to book at this hotel based on the good reviews. I called them about late check out time and the guy who answered the phone was impatient and sounded annoyed by my inquiry and not interested in my business. The latest check out time here is 1pm. (Marriott hotel's 3pm) At the end of the conversation, I said "thank you." The response was "aight" and then hung up. Not very professional. I'm not gonna book here.

I found this Hampton to be a cut above normal...nicely-maintained, friendly staff, good property. The upgraded room was with whirlpool. Although this was a very nice amenity, it appears that they just took normal King room and built the whirlpool into one of the corners. Frankly, it substantially reduced the useable space in the room and almost seemed cramped. But it was definitely great prior to bedding down :-) Their breakfast items, although pretty normal for Hamptons, were kept stocked. Often near the end of service at 10am, many properties just have overcooked items and empty trays remaining...not at this property.

First, I have to say that check in blew me away. Well, stunned me anyway. I reserved online and requested extra pillows and bath towels in the comments box. I travel often on business and some personal and this is a standard request that I have been making for about 8 years. At check in, I was told that my request for extra towels and pillows was received and they are already in my room! Sounds silly, but that made a huge impression. It is the FIRST time this request has been fulfilled in advance, even if staying at a 5 star hotel/resort.

The room was well appointed, plenty of outlets to charge my various electronic gadgets. Comfortable, clean nice TV too. The only thing lacking was the clock radio. The numbers did not glow. They were gray and could not been seen at night or unless up close. The bathroom was nice with EXCELLENT lighting (most are never bright enough, making shaving an adventure or make you feel like you are showering in a cave). The shower was also GREAT. The shower head actually delivered a very nice flow and spray of water. This was a simple water pic 6-7 setting head that really worked well. A rarity for sure in my travels.

Breakfast was pretty good too. Although I am not a fan of powdered scrambled eggs and the "bagel topper" is not a topper. It is half a bagel with egg, cheese and sausage somehow bonded to the surface. It reminded me of bagel bites (pizza bagels). The oatmeal was excellent with plenty of things to mix in if desired. Juices, hard boiled eggs, cold cereals, yogurt, make your own waffles, pastries, breads, bagels, etc, fresh fruit that was very good and great coffee.

Free USA was under my door as well in the a.m. with my bill. I would highly recommend this location. It is right off a major highway, near a great deal of shopping, banks and restaurants and close to the train station. I have been finding Hampton Inns to be better than most business hotels lately when traveling and also very suitable for personal/vacation travels.

Loved the stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean, spacious and filled with necessary amenities. The staff was very friendly. The breakfasts every morning were terrific and I loved the round the clock coffee, hot chocolate and tea! It is easy to find and has many good restaurants around it.
